Schwintek slide jammed - shifted back
My living room slide won't go out. I used to be able to give it a shove to start it moving, but that doesn't work anymore.
Both motors are working (I can hear them both) but the rear part of the slide doesn't move (front does).
Given that it's in means that I can't get at the motor and drive system. I was going to unscrew the vertical piece that holds the motor, etc. but the screws are covered by the outer trim. There is plenty of space to get at the front screws. Looks like the slide has shifted back by about half an inch. I think this is the reason why the rear of the slide doesn't move.
I think I have to push the slide forward and then it will probably work. If not, at least I'll have access to the screws to remove the mechanism.
My question is this: if I manage to get a pry bar between the wall and the slide, will that be sufficient to move the slide? Do I have to jack up the slide to get it off the rollers at the bottom? I think I can get the furniture out of the slide (living room) to lighten the load.
Any other suggestions?
